Abstract
Disclosed are methods and apparatus for calculating sensor timing corrections at a sensor device. The methods and apparatus determine a sampling period as a number of cycles of an internal clock counted while a configured number of samples is captured in a slave device, determine a time interval between samples using an offset from a time of an observed occurrence of a hardware event on a communication link, the offset being received in a command from a master device, and adjust the time interval between samples by iterative digital approximation to correct for differences between timing of the slave device and the master device while concurrently calculating a watermark time corresponding to a sample start time configured by the master device for one or more slave devices.
